Shoot me your snailer, I have some, you can have. They just are not tripping my trigger.

Just kidding,Homebrew......just hope for the Love of Pete, Cuban prices come down ugh!

For you my love, of course!

This again….

Say it ain’t so Joe!

What do you have that you do not like?
Perhaps a trade could be in the future...

Just pulled the trigger.

No, it is not. This is just some stupid, piss-a-way money, I got. Could have taken my wife to Las Vegas with it or the like, or she could blow it on a piece of jewelery in a heartbeat. This time it is my turn!!!

I am looking at pc and smaller size cigars due to pricing. Some are odd-ball sizes kinda like: 40-41 x 47/8 to 5.5 and some smaller format favorites. Just like two, maybe three more boxes. A total of just 100-125 cigars.

I am also looking for some stuff that is close to or ready to smoke, or smokes well early. Two won't give out box codes. Waiting on two more to see if they will.

I was going to pull the trigger on some Series D before all this jacked up pricing started, but I didn't because I shouldn't buy so many cigars, don't have room, they'll always be there, blah, blah, blah.

But I kept buying other stuff, and now I have non-buyer's regret for not buying some when they were more approachable.

Yerandy Gomez custom about a toro size.

Flag cap and closed foot encased in his usual Cuban news print. This one was much darker wrapper than usual with more tang about med+.

The only way box codes have any use is if you know of a code that has been especially good and are looking for that one. Codes used to be assigned by factory but haven't been for many years now. Date codes, different story.

Or how ‘bout Monte #2, $811 for a box of 25?

Yes!!!

Okay so how is everyone getting Cuban Cigars but me. What are the chances of getting caught driving back through customs at the Canadian American border in the upper Midwest states.

Not worth the risk.

Canadian prices are high, but some vendors match prices.
Canadian delivery is often 2-3 days too.

Tonight I reached into my stash of damaged Cuban cigars, for a H. Upmann Sir Winston, with a damaged wrapper. The wrapper was split, at the foot. It still smoked great. I nubbed it. It was a very nice smoke. The only box of Sir Winstons I have, are from 2015. I normally would only smoke these, on my birthday, but since it was damaged, I went ahead.

I am glad I did.
